SCRANTON — Serving Seniors, Inc., through its Operation Friendship project, is seeking individuals and groups of all ages to write and send or hand deliver personalized Christmas cards to area nursing and assisted living/personal care home residents. The organization has a list of over 3,000 residents from various long-term care facilities throughout Lackawanna County who would benefit from a holiday greeting.

Students of all ages, Scout troops, church and civic groups, as well as individuals, who would like to share this simple, yet meaningful, gift of holiday giving are invited to participate.
